Abbey Wood Park

This park is a grassy open space of land ideal for the kids to run about in. Hidden within the park is an elegant Rose Garden where flowers lace themselves around delicate trellises and blossom into a multitude of colours in the summer months.

The centrepiece of the park is a striking cubist monument with a mad network of ornate carvings stretched across it. The park also has basketball courts, five-a-side football courts and a full size football pitch for the more energetic among you.

Incidentally, the Lesnes Abbey Woods are nearby and come alive with a sea of wild daffodils and bluebells in springtime.
